Oh, yes! Unstoppable! I like the sounds of that.

You are doing it all wrong. When we need something done here, we organize a work party and get it done in one or two days. My family will work for a good BBQ at the end. The family calls it a raising. ;)

Stairs are a pain, especially the risers!

A work party? A raising? My god, if only we had such things here. If I got my family around all that would happen is a massive drinking session after which the place would be strewn with cigarette butts and beer cans.

I admire the ethic hugely, in fact I'm jealous!!

I have eight siblings. When I bought a summer home near the lake up on the Canadian border, the entire place had to be gutted and rebuilt. No kidding, right down to the studs. Most of my brothers came and my dad, they in one week's time, it was completely new. No kidding.

Then the beer came out. They partied like 1999. Wait. That was in 1999. It was my first real place. :)) The ethic comes from New England. Many hands make the load lighter. It sounds smarmy but, I can tell you, I have abused done for anyone who puts one together and it has a way of giving back and giving back.

I cannot tell you how many things I have learned doing this. :))

I think it sounds fabulous amd with eight siblings!! Hot donk, that is many hands! I have one and he is anot the most dynamic get up and go mover. Same with the Good LAdy's family although she has more siblings than me. We are cursed!
